Godless Engineer | Catholic Caller Attempts To Prove Jesus Was Crucified @godlessengineer | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
In today's episode, I critically analyze the historical evidence (or lack thereof) surrounding the crucifixion of Jesus. Today, I'm dissecting the arguments presented by a Catholic caller trying to prove the historicity of Jesus's crucifixion.
Throughout the discussion, I challenge the reliance on biblical texts and so-called historical accounts that many believers cite as evidence. I focus mainly on Paul's epistles, the Gospels, and external sources like Tacitus and Josephus, explaining why these do not constitute independent, verifiable evidence of an actual crucifixion.
Essential points covered include:
The Mythological Nature of the Gospels: I argue that the Gospels are more akin to mythological narratives rather than factual historical accounts, drawing parallels with other mythic biographies of the time.
Paul's Information Source: I discuss how Paul, a pivotal figure in early Christianity, admits his information came from scriptures and visions, not from verifiable historical events.
Questioning External Sources: I scrutinize the credibility and independence of external historical texts that mention Jesus, highlighting how these sources merely echo Christian beliefs prevalent at the time rather than offering eyewitness accounts.
This episode is essential for anyone interested in a rational perspective on religious history, the origins of Christian doctrines, and the critical examination of historical evidence. Join me as I unpack why the crucifixion story, as presented in Christian doctrine, fails to hold up under rigorous scrutiny and why it should be viewed with a healthy dose of skepticism.

![David Fitzgerald Talks About Playing God [ NEW BOOKS ]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XrV_UOHKVcE/hqdefault.jpg "David Fitzgerald Talks About Playing God [ NEW BOOKS ]
Tonight, we are talking to David Fitzgerald about his newest trilogy of books documenting how religion originated and evolved.
PLAYING GOD, vol. I ( https://amzn.to/4eUmcXa )
The Evolution of God (chapters 1–5) charts the evolutionary stages that all our major world religions appear to have undergone, from prehistory to the dawn of the first century. The Gods of Monotheism (chapters 6–13) reveal the surprisingly rocky twists and turns that gave us belief in a single “One True God” – and all the other One True Gods who gave Yahweh a run for his money…
PLAYING GOD, vol. II ( https://amzn.to/4eQzALM )
Who’s real—and who’s not—in the Bible? Find out in God’s Imaginary Friends: Judaism (chapters 14–21) and Christianity(chapters 22–25) when we take a deep dive into the Bible’s mix of myth, folklore, and political propaganda and examine the “Biblical History” of events and figures such as Abraham, Moses, Samson, David and Solomon, Jesus, John the Baptist, Paul, and many others.
PLAYING GOD, vol. III ( https://amzn.to/4eTWnGE )
Was Muhammad real? What about the Buddha, Confucius, Lao-Tze, and all the rest? The look into God’s Imaginary Friends continues with Islam (chapters 26– 31) and Eastern Religions(chapters 32 – 34). Find out what the most up-to-date scholarship has to say about the actual origins of Islam and the surprising family tree connections between the Western and Eastern religions.
